Question

Solve the equation below for x. -1/2 (3x-4)=11

Answer 1

ANSWER

C 6

EXPLANATION

The given equation is

$- \frac{1}{2} (3x - 4) = 11$

Multiply through by -2 to get:

$- \frac{1}{2} \times - 2(3x - 4) = 11 \times - 2$

$3x - 4 = - 22$

Add 4 to both sides of the equation:

$3x = - 22 + 4$

$3x = - 18$

Divide both sides by 3.

$x= - \frac{18}{3}$

This simplifies to

$x = - 6$

The correct answer is C

Answer 2

Answer:

x= −6

Step-by-step explanation:

you are supposed to isolate the variable by dividing both sides by the factor that do not contain the variable
